"Ala Göz" Translation

The standard version of this song was popularized by Rəşid Behbudov, one of the most remarkable musical talents of modern Azerbaijan.  However, I first heard this song four years ago in a rendition by Şövkət Ələkbərova.  As far as I know the verses at the beginning were written by her or were written especially for her.  (If anyone knows more, please comment below.)  Her voice seems to directly express the longing (həsrət) and sorrow (dərd) of the lyrics.  I am a big fan of Şövkət Ələkbərova and I hope to translate more of her songs in the future.

I have attempted to translate the lyrics as I found them here.  I am not entirely certain that the lyrics transcribed on that blog are accurate, particularly the word "sovulub" in the line "O kimin eşqinlə elə sovulub."  This is a rough attempt that barely conveys the poetic beauty of the original Azeri with its rich vocabulary for expressing the pain of a lost love.  I would appreciate any suggestions, particularly since this is the first time I have ever tried to translate poetry.

Ala Göz

Sənin gətirdiyin bir dəstə çiçək

Saralıb solubdur, ata bilmirəm

Gecəli gündüzü bu həsrət ürək

Elə kövrəlir ki yata bilmirəm

Doğrusu, yorubdur məni bu halım

Dərdlərin əlindən bəs harada qalım

Elə bir qanadlı quşdur xəyalım

Əl edib mən onu tuta bilmirəm 

Deyilər yollarda vüsal görünür

O kimin eşqinlə elə sovulub

Mənim uçun küləyə şimşəyə dönüb

Qaçıram ardınca, çata bilmirəm

Kirpiklərin oxdur, qaşın kamandır, qaşın kamandır

Gözəl məndən üz döndərmə amandır

Həsrətinlə hər zaman, Həsrətinlə hər zaman

Gözüm qaldı bu yollarda ay ala göz

Ala göz, ala göz, ala göz

Gözüm qaldı bu yollarda ay ala göz

Hazel Eyes

The bouquet that you brought

Withered yellow, I cannot throw away

Night and day this longing heart

Languishes so much that I can not sleep

Truly, I am wearied by my condition

Distraught with sorrows, where should I remain?

My dream is a pinioned bird

Flapping I still cannot catch it

On no path will our meeting appear

Oh whose love you have destroyed

For me it transformed to wind and lightning

I run after but I can never reach it

Your eyelashes are arrows, your brow a bow, your brow a bow

Turning away your beautiful face from me is a mercy

With longing forever more, with longing forever more

From your path I could not look away, oh hazel eyes

Hazel eyes, hazel eyes, hazel eyes

From your path I could not look away, oh hazel eyes
